Hi there! 

Continuing with the LA theme, while I was out there I styled another recent Free People top (called the “embroidered bell sleeve top” from Nordstrom that I just love! I’m wearing it with a studded ankle boot, Old Navy flares, and a suede moto jacket from Nordstrom by Vigoss. I finished the look with my Balenciaga Mini City crossbody purse. I always love Grand Central Market in downtown LA and it’s food options including an amazing breakfast place called “Eggslut.” I love LA!

There are so many fun boho looks everywhere right now, and even in the cold you can style the tops with layers;). Stay tuned for holiday looks next up!

Hi there! 

Here I am in Positano on Italy's Amalfi Coast recently, wearing 12th Tribe's Midnight Rose Wrap Crop and wrap skirt set. I felt like the flamenco dancer I am in this look, and I recently wore it again for opening night of my West Side Story contract at the Ivoryton Playhouse which is running now through July 30th on the Connecticut Shoreline!

This look is so fun and flirty for summer. I accessorized with  Jack Rogers gold wedge sandals and my Balenciaga Mini City purse as well as gold shell earrings from a small Brazilian boutique in Recife. 

Positano was absolutely beautiful I could barely stand it. What a dream vacation destination! Francisco and I stayed with my Godmother and her husband in his family home that has been in his family for generations. Positano has a rich history and is blooming now, the beaches and shops and restaurants are all amazing! Here I am below wearing the same look in Savannah, GA on a recent trip.

Two Pieces & Balenciaga

Carolina Santos Read

Here I am in my new Balenciaga Mini City bag, Valentino rock stud heels, Reformation two piece, and Bebe leather biker jacket. Photography by Francisco Graciano.

Hi there!

Spring has sprung in New York City and at the moment I'm loving my Reformation two piece crop top and skirt. I love how Eco friendly they are as a company and their clothes are always effortlessly chic and fun to wear. I styled my two piece with my Valentino red and nude rock stud heels, Bebe black leather biker jacket and new Balenciaga pink Mini City bag. 

I played with edginess and flirty girly fashion on this look, which is something I always like to try. However I've also styled this look with platform lace up ankle booties and a choker for a more 90s look. 

My new Mini City bag is the perfect size for being on the go and the color matches a lot of my spring looks.

Happy Spring! The weather makes me want to eat outside and get macaroons at La Duree on Madison ave in my Upper East Side neighborhood like I was doing in this photo:)

Carolina
